    gem are we counting piggy points? Just got my bingo points credited (did last month) havent withdrawn them into vouchers yet as they are for xmas gifts...

    Once you've converted them for vouchers, yes. If they are extra to the money which you would have saved for xmas gifts without them.

    :rotfl: I'm the same with several of mine. I've got about £50 tied up in vouchers on various sites. Plus my £400 Amazon.
    But it makes more sense to count it when it's "real" i.e. hit the account or spent.

    I always withdrew my vouchers as soon as I have enough points. You never know if the site is still going to be up and running by Christmas!

    Just got another £11.51 from bingo :D

    Good idea if they don't expire I guess. I'm always afraid they'll run out!

    Ah true! I tend to just go for the Boots vouchers which don't have an expiry. (Or sell them to my mum ;) )

    Got first wage for temp promotion at work £235.95 for February. A real boost for me now up to £331.94.

    Also got 2 interviews in a forntight so fingers crossed though it means I can't go on school residential therefore saving money on buying outdoor clothing (as I don't own any sportswear).
    LBM 03/07 £44k:eek: DFD 31/12/17 :A 12/17 £2545.50
    Credit Card £2500.00 & Next £45.00
    Savings = £81.21 & Help To Buy ISA = £4700.00

    Another £100 hit the account from Paypal today, so will add that.

    I also had a win in an amusement arcade today (not something I usually do I might add!) - took DS to the soft play at a retail outlet which is also full of games machines, and as we were walking out I noticed a 2p on the floor. Stuck it in one of the coin pusher thingies, and won 6p! DH couldn't believe that I actually put it in my pocket rather than chucking it back in the machine! Another 6p to the total!
  • wahoooo i can finally add something to my total. One of my bingo winnings hit my bank account so another £31.28 to add:D

    Going to meet FDF for the first time today as i am going to see her where she works - i may have to say GL GL GL as my code so she recognises me :rotfl:
